During the Mid-Autumn Festival, Su-Ling's small village is planning a rebellion against the Mongolian invaders and Su-Ling wants to help! Can she use her wits and courage…to deliver a secret message hidden in a box of mooncakes, without getting caught by Mongol guards?

AGES: 5 to 9 AUTHOR: Sapphire Chow (1954-2023) grew up in Southeast Asia, where books were scarce, so her love for children's literature wasn't sparked until she immigrated to Canada and had her own children.

Whether she was folding dumplings with her grandchildren or sharing a fun story, Sapphire's positivity was contagious.

She received a BA in illustration from the Hubei Institute of Fine Arts and an MFA in illustration from the Minneapolis College of Art and Design. Xiaojie's artistic focus is on children's illustration, editorial illustration, and surface design for a wide range of projects including children's books, publications, magazines, advertising, and packaging. She combines mixed media and materials to create illustrations, which include digital and hand drawing, paper cutting, clay, and fabrics. SELLING POINTS: . CULTURAL REPRESENTATION: Set in a time and place not often seen in picture books (China in the 1200s CE), during a major cultural celebration the Mid-Autumn Festival. . STRONG HEROINE: Main character is a courageous young girl who perseveres in a time of conflict and comes up with her own creative solution to the challenge. . GRAPHIC NOVEL ADJACENT: Illustrator Xiaojie Liu brings an exciting, fresh, contemporary feel to the artwork with panels, speech bubbles, and graphic text design. . RELEVANT MESSAGE: Universal, timeless theme of resistance against oppression. . SOCIAL-EMOTIONAL LEARNING: Delivers a strong message about cleverness, courage, and bravery, wrapped in a thrilling, high-stakes story that will engage even reluctant young readers. .
